NPR’s Inauguration Report site goes live

After we reblogged NPR’s proposals for inauguration coverage with a social media twist, it’s great to see the plans coming into action.

The broadcaster has created Inauguration Report, which features location-based reports from readers and listeners watching the inauguration events in Washington and elsewhere, submitted by text, Twitter, Flickr and YouTube.

By tagging their entries by location, e.g. L:lincoln for the Lincoln Memorial, NPR will map the accounts. Real-time updates from contributors will feed into this stream.
